Agreed. Twitter posts here are usually garbage, but what news source isn’t these days? Even the current favs around here can go dark side at anytime.
My idea, FWIW is to have “Free Republic verifed” Twitter sources. A short list of news sources that have proved their worth. Everything else gets dumped to bloggers or chat. Lot of work though.

That's possible but unlikely.....news sources on twitter generally refer to an actual written article or newsroom site...which is good because we can snatch the article then and bring it hear...and what people should do rater than reference just the tweet..,...but then that takes time and people using twitter want instant gratification.

... have “Free Republic verifed” Twitter sources... Such things change daily, sometimes hourly. I doubt very much that JimRob, JohnRob, or the AdminMods are in need of another 24x7 hobby, one is enough.

You're right, after I thought about it, too much work for the admins to run thru as well.
Not sure what the answer is but I personally hate twitter for reasons besides what they did to Trump.....it is a cesspool of creatures, bots, and foreign entities playing their game..
